REST IN TUBERCULOSIS e TN THE twenty-five years since 1900, most of our knowledge of tuberculosis and practically all our knowledge of successful methods of its treatment have developed. Many medicines of different kinds have been used. None of them has been found to be of any real value. Many different kinds of serum have been tried. Not one has come up to the expectations and claims of its discoverer. Every few months, the newspapers announce that some one who is or who claims to be an authority on tuberculosis has found a new cure of wonderful value. None of these has ever fulfilled the promises j of its promoters. So after centuries of ignorance and a quarter of a century of investigation, our knowledge of the treatment of consumption can be told in a few words. Outdoor air; sunlight; food and rest. And the greatest and most important of these is rest. It is also the one which apparently is most difficult for the patient to take or at least take effectively. Tell the incipient or the convalescing consumption patient that be must stay outdoors a certain number of hours a day, that he must sleep l with windows wide open, that he must i set all the sunlight possible and that he must eat certain amounts of certain foods every day and he will probably obey. But tell him that rest is the most important treatment and he will too often follow his impulse and his feelings rather than his instructions. Especially is this true of the patient who is recovering. His fever Is practically gone; his cough is disappearing; he is gaining weight. The holes in his lungs are closing up, he feels I new life and energy. He’s tired of “lying around.” Then, too, the disease itself is strangely and peculiarly stimulating. It has often been remarked, by students of tuberculosis, that the very poison of this disease acts like a stimulant on the human body and mind. So the patient wants to be up and doing. And right there is the danger. He doesn’t know the limits of his own strength. Often he may undo in a day or an hour the slow gain of weeks and months. Here's where the home treatment of tuberculosis falls down. The consumptive at home may have plenty of good air, sunlight and food. But unless his rest, work and play are carefully supervised by some one who knows just what it is safe for him to do, he may ruin the good effects of months of self-control and self-denial by a single hour’s indiscretion. For this reason a consumptive is better off at a good sanitarium than anywhere else. SEEING IN THE DARK WHY can some people see better in the dark than others? Why can some animals, especially cats and j their second cousins, lions and tigers, ■ as well as owls, see clearly at night? We know, by / common observation, that these differences exist but no careful investigation of them has been made until recently. Curiously enough, the subject has been taken up by a physician in the British navy in an effort to discover ways in which the night vision of officers and seamen in the navy can be improved. Night is the time of greatest danger at sea. Electric searchi lights are of great value in lighting up objects, if one knows where to look. But it is impossible to light up the whole ocean and even if it were possible, searchlights are almost as dangerous as they are helpful, for they are just as much service to the enemy in revealing the presence of one's own ship. To the officer in charge, the wheelsman or the lookout, they are apt to be confusing. In a recent issue of the Proceedings of the Royal Society of Medicine. Dr. Sidney Russ reports some interesting I experiments he has made. Doctor Russ found that the human eye could see better at night if it had rested during the day and had been protected from the bright sunlight or from strong artificial light. This explains why animals with keen sight in the dark instinctively rest during the day in dark places. The owl, whose ability to see at night is well known, rests during the day in the darkest place he can lind. Tigers hide during the day in the depths of- dark caves, resting the eyes so that they can see best in the darkest night. It has been found that lookouts and watchmen can see best at night if they spend the day resting and sleeping in dark rooms. Doctor Russ also found that there is i a marked difference in the eyes of dif- > ferent persons. Sunlight, when broken . up by a prism, is made up of violet. I indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, and red. The violet rays are the shortest ; and the red rays the longest. The j yellow rays, which are the greatest in number in sunlight and daylight, are ■ also the rays of medium length and . consequently those which most eyes : can see, while the violet rays, which are the shortest and which are most common at night, are those which enable some persons to see better in the dark and are also those which are of the most value to owls, tigers and other nocturnal animals.
